It's really, really, really going to suck to lose that resource when troubleshooting weird hardware and software issues, but that seems inevitable at this point. He really seems to be trying to figure out the stupidest way to kill the utility of the site in the name of profit.

Google search: hyperspecific computer or hobby problem reddit is the only good material I find on the damn site.

Okay then what the hell am I going to type in after 80% of my google searches to avoid SEO spam?

please get rid of the only reason I even open that shithole, I'm begging you

Why is reddit regarded so highly this way? It's always been a second rate board to me. Like yeah there's some technical discussion there. Even notable names might post there. But it's the social media version of technical side of the internet. It's generally full of garbage that requires heavy doses of skepticism as bad info often gets visibility. There is no recourse since the nature of reddit engagement is ephemeral. The proverbial concrete sets shortly after the post/comment is made.

I suppose the state off affairs have deteriorated so far that search engines don't even index the internet properly anymore. Actual discussion boards and websites are basically darknet these days. Internet indexes for all intents and purposes don't exist today. Search engines a glorified index links to each others social media platforms. Even then the bulk of results are online shopping spam.

What a mess.

For any topic I actually want to dive into I do not use reddit for anything more than initial discovery. Social media by nature commoditizes content to serve the masses by appealing to the lowest common denominators. The bulk of the content never goes below surface level.

Reddit is apparently seeking to strike deals with big AI companies.

Always, always chasing THE BIG NEW THING.
